... P22.6: Two circuits contain an emf produced by a moving metal rod, like that shown in Figure 22.4b. The speed of the rod is the same in each circuit, but the bulb in circuit 1 has one-half the resistance of the bulb in circuit 2. The circuits are otherwise identical. The resistance of the light bulb ...

... magnet’s alternating magnetic field. This interaction spins the can since the magnetic forces are opposed, as Lenz’s law states. Because the can sits on top of water, the friction between the can and the surface is very small, and only the magnetic forces act on the can while the students twirl the ...

History of electromagnetic theory
For a chronological guide to this subject, see Timeline of electromagnetic theory.The history of electromagnetic theory begins with ancient measures to deal with atmospheric electricity, in particular lightning. People then had little understanding of electricity, and were unable to scientifically explain the phenomena. In the 19th century there was a unification of the history of electric theory with the history of magnetic theory. It became clear that electricity should be treated jointly with magnetism, because wherever electricity is in motion, magnetism is also present. Magnetism was not fully explained until the idea of magnetic induction was developed. Electricity was not fully explained until the idea of electric charge was developed.
